Same here but they usually only use the standard one on forest gates. Do they use 2 different ones on forest gates with you?

Had both types on entrance gates.

As we can see, the standard fc lock is the bottom. Many years ago now, before the days of mobiles, and I had no radio,and the wrong key ring, I found myself locked in Swaffham Forest late one Saturday afternoon, of course no fc workers around at the weekend and I doubt not a ranger for miles.
In desperation I sawed the wooden post off beside the familiar pole gate, and kept a low profile on the Monday morning.
